Overlord is an action adventure game that lets the player control Goblin minions and order them as the player sees fit.In the story, the minions see you coming out of the Overlord's castle and believe you are their new overlord. The game will be released in 2007 on both the PC and Xbox 360. The story revolves around the ever growing Goblin armies who are trying to kill the seven lords who destroyed the original Goblin Overlord. Since then the seven lords have slowly become the living embodiment of The Seven Deadly Sins.
The game is unusual in the concept that there is one main character and a large number, which rumors include possibly up to 50, of smaller minions to control. Though the Nintendo title Pikmin and its sequel used this concept extensively. There are at least four types of smaller minions. The minions include normal workers who do many tasks which include collecting loot. There are other minions that hurl fireballs, which are also immune to fire. While the minions are useful to the player, they are also easily distracted. Distractions may include musicians which need to be killed in order for the minions to resume their productive roles again.
